1.??? As online learning becomes more common and more and more resources are converted to digital form, some people have suggested that public libraries should be shut down and, in their place, everyone should be given an iPad with an e-reader subscription.
??? Supporters of this idea state that it will save local cities and towns money because libraries are expensive to maintain. They also believe it will encourage more people to read because they won't have to travel to a library to get a book; they can simply click on what they want to read and read it wherever they are.
??? However, it would be a serious mistake to replace libraries with tablets. First, digital books and resources are associated with less learning and more problems than print resources. A study done on tablet vs. book reading found people read 20—30% slower on tablets, retain 20% less information, and understand 10% less of what they read compared to people who read the same information in print.
??? Second, it is incredibly narrow-minded to assume that the only service libraries offer is book lending. Libraries have a multitude of benefits, and many are only available if the library has a physical location. Some of these benefits include acting as a quiet study space, giving people a way to converse with their neighbors, holding classes on a variety of topics, providing jobs, answering patron questions, and keeping the community connected. A survey conducted in 2015 found that nearly two-thirds of American adults feel that closing their local library would have a major impact on their community. People see libraries as a way to connect with others and get their questions answered, benefits tablets can't offer nearly as well or as easily.
??? While replacing libraries with tablets may seem like a simple solution, it would encourage people to spend even more time looking at digital screens, despite the various issues surrounding them. It would also end access to many of the benefits of libraries that people have come to rely on. In many areas, libraries are such an important part of the community network that they could never be replaced by a simple object.

2.??? Humans may have been enjoying cacao, the substance used to make chocolate, for much longer than experts had thought. Researchers at the University of British Columbia in Canada have found that humans started growing cacao trees and consuming cacao around 5,300 years ago.
??? The researchers found evidence of cacao's use at an ancient village in the highlands of southeastern Ecuador. They examined the remains of very old objects at the Santa Ana-La Florida archeological site. The village was part of the Mayo-Chinchipe culture of the Andes. Time has had little effect on the village and ceremonial center. The researchers were able to find a lot of evidence of the use of cacao. Scientists had already mostly agreed that cacao was first raised in South America instead of Central America, as they once believed. But the new discovery shows cacao was domesticated about 1,500 years earlier than was known before.
??? The University of British Columbia researchers found extremely small pieces from the cacao tree in the remains of containers and other objects, as well as genetic material from the tree. They also identified a substance found in the cacao tree but not in its wild relatives. This suggests that humans grew the tree for food purposes.
??? Today, the seeds are cooked and turned into many chocolate products. But thousands of years ago, cacao was used to make drinks.
??? Archeological evidence suggests cacao domestication moved into Central America and Mexico about 4,000 years ago. It is not clear how cacao's use spread between South and Central America. But by the time Spanish explorers arrived in Central America in the late 1400s, people were using it to make hot and cold chocolate drinks with spices. By the 1580s, Spain began importing cacao and spreading it to other European countries. By the 1800s, technology developed in the Netherlands made it possible to turn cacao into a solid chocolate product.
1.What did the researchers do to find evidence of the cacao's use in ancient times?
A.They traveled in Ecuador's village. B.They researched the history of chocolate.
C.They studied the remains of very old objects. D.They asked the old villagers for help.
2.How did the people in South America get the cacao 5,300 years ago?
A.By growing the cacao tree by themselves. B.By collecting it in the wild.
C.By buying it from central America. D.By getting it from chocolate.
3.According to the text, when did the solid chocolate first appear?
A.5,300 years ago. B.4,000 years ago.
C.In the 1400s. D.In the 1800s.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.The History of Cacao Tree Growing B.Human's Preference for Cacao
C.Chocolate's Story Older Than Once Thought D.The Research of Chocolate in Ancient Times
3.??? People who seek comfort by pouring their hearts out in Courtney's office don't get rewarded with an Xanax or Prozac prescription(處方). Instead, they walk away with a reading list of some fictions.
??? Such fictions as To Kill a Mockingbird and The Color Purple teach you complicated topics like racism, poverty, bullying and other issues. They could also help you know your own heart and others'. Keith Oatley, a psychology professor at Toronto University, recommends novels that help us understand the characters from the inside rather than plot-driven novels. We can learn from a literary masterpiece, such as Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway, or from popular fictions such as Harry Potter. Spending quality time with these characters as you relax on the beach or sit propped up on bed pillows may enhance your EQ (emotional intelligence).
??? Lab tests seem to show this. Brain scans of people who have been reading fictions show the area that corresponds with emotion lights up. Even if you are not a keen reader, there's still hope. Past studies have shown serial TV programs that are character driven such as The West Wing or The Good Wife also help you better understand what we human beings are up to. Other studies have shown watching character-driven sitcoms can lessen a viewer's prejudice.
??? You can be as witty as Sherlock, but to get along well in this life, you really do need to understand people emotionally. And you can't be as emotionally unavailable as Mr. Darcy throughout much of Pride and Prejudice. You have to learn the lesson Jane Austen is trying to teach with that book. Kieth said, "To love people, you really have to know them." People say you only get one life, but I say read fictions and you can live many lives in one.
1.Which statement is true according to the passage?
A.Reading novels cures diseases. B.Plot-driven novels are not beneficial.
C.Woolf stands out as a novelist. D.Brain scans influence people's EQ.
2.How is the third paragraph mainly developed?
A.By listing numbers and data. B.By following time order.
C.By providing some evidence. D.By making good comparisons.
3.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.Sherlock gets along well in life. B.Darcy is not very emotionally intelligent.
C.Keith loves reading Austen's novels. D.Reading fictions can lengthen our life.
4.What is the best title for the text?
A.The Collapse of Traditional Prescription B.Ways to Boost EQ
C.Suggestions on Choosing Right Novels D.Reading Fictions Benefits EQ
4.??? If your friend says she feels relaxed, but you see that she closes her hands into fists, you may doubt her words. Robots, however, might believe her. Body language says a lot, but robots have great difficulty in observing tiny body movements and can miss important social signals as a result.
??? Researchers developed a body-tracking system that might help solve this problem. The system called OpenPose can track body movement in real time. One important quality of it is that it can track not only a person's head, body, arms and legs but also his fingers. To do that, the researchers used a dome lined with 500 cameras, where they recorded body movements at different angles and then used those pictures to build a data set.
??? They then passed those pictures through a key point detector to identify and label specific body parts. The software also learned to connect the body parts with different people.
??? The pictures from the dome were recorded in 2-D. But the researchers used 3-D technology to help the system understand how each movement appears from different angles. With all of this data processed, the system can determine how the whole hand looks even if some fingers cannot be seen.
??? Now that the system has this data set to draw from, it can run with just one camera and one computer. It no longer requires the camera-lined dome to determine body poses, making the technology mobile and accessible.
??? The researchers say this technology could be used for interactions between humans and machines. It could play a huge role in VR experiences, allowing finer detection of the user's physical movement without any added hardware. It could also help with more natural interactions with a home robot. You could tell your robot to "pick that up", and it could easily understand what you're pointing at. By interpreting your physical gestures, the robot may even learn to read emotions by tracking body language. So when you're silently crying with your face in your hands because a robot has taken your job, it might offer you a tissue.
1.What does the underlined words "this problem" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Humans are addicted to technology. B.Human-robot relationship is poor.
C.Robots show too much trust in humans. D.Robots fail to interpret tiny physical gestures.
2.What do we know about OpenPose?
A.It tracks one person at a time. B.It can track slight body movements.
C.It uses a dome to recognize people. D.It can take 500 pictures in one second.
3.What makes OpenPose easy to use?
A.The data set. B.3-D technology.
C.A powerful computer. D.A camera-lined dome.
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A.What Robots Are Expected to Do in the Future?
B.Why Is Body Language So Important?
C.Robots Learn to Read Body Language
D.Robots Can and Will Change Our Lives
5.??? Think "art". What comes to your mind? Is it Greek or Roman sculptures in the Louvre, or Chinese paintings? Have you ever imagined it's a dancing pattern of lights?
??? The artworks by American artist Janet Echelman look like colorful floating clouds when lit up at night. Visitors could not only enjoy looking at them but also interact with them literally—by using their phones to change the colors and patterns. But are they really art?
??? Whatever your opinion, we cannot deny art has existed for thousands of years and art and technology have always been two separate things.
??? Today, however, technological advances have led to a combination of art and technology, changing the art world greatly. Now art is more accessible to us. For example, people used to queue six hours but spend limited time admiring the famous 5-meter Chinese painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival. Thanks to technology, however, viewers can leisurely experience a digital version of this painting, where the characters can move and interact with their surroundings.
??? The art-tech combination is also changing our concepts of "art" and the "artist". Not only can we interact with art, but take part in its creation. With new technological tools at our fingertips, more people are exploring new art forms, such as digital paintings and videos. However, it has also raised questions over its overall quality. Can a video of someone slicing a tomato really be called "art"?
??? Similarly, such developments are making the line between art and technology less distinct. Can someone unfamiliar with traditional artists' tools really call themselves an "artist"? And is the artist the creator of the art itself, or the maker of the technology behind it?
??? Where technology will take art next is anyone's guess. But one thing is for sure—with so many artists exploring new possibilities, we can definitely expect the unexpected.
1.How could viewers interact with Janet Echelman's artworks?
A.By talking to her on the phone. B.By lighting up the artworks.
C.By touching their phone screens. D.By coloring the patterns.
2.What does the example in Paragraph 4 indicate?
A.Achievements of China's technology. B.The influence of art on technology.
C.Interaction between viewers and art. D.Easier access to art caused by technology.
3.What do we know about the art-tech combination?
A.It lowers the quality of artworks. B.It involves common people in innovation.
C.It shortens the time of painting. D.It makes scientists the real creators of art.
4.What is the author's attitude toward combining technology with art?
A.Regretful. B.Objective. C.Disapproving. D.Conservative.
6.??? A long-term dream for 3-D bioprinting is that people on active waiting lists for organ donations might one day have the option of getting a bio-printed organ. Although the ability to produce a functional heart or kidney this way likely lies years in the future, realistic near-term goals include bioprinting simpler structures. Living tissues printed outside the body, however, would still require implantation operation, which often involves large incisions that increase the risk of infection and lengthen recovery time.
??? Scientists in Tsinghua University are working on a way to print cells directly inside the body. The idea would be to use existing minimally invasive(切入的) operation techniques to insert 3-D printing tools into patients and then lay down new tissues.
??? Much of the previous research has focused on treatments of skin and other tissues in the outer part of the body, because the necessary equipment is normally too large to access the digestive tract and other centrally located organs. Scientists in China wanted to develop a mini bioprinting robot that could enter the human body with relative case, so that they can use the technology for conditions like stomach ulcer(潰瘍).
??? The resulting micro robot is just 30 millimeters wide—less than half the width of a credit card—and can fold to a length of 43 millimeters. Once inside a patient's body, it unfolds to become 59 millimeters long and can start bioprinting. The team has constructed clever mechanisms that make the system compact when entering the body yet extend to provide a large working area once past the tight entry. In their experiments, the researchers in China fitted the micro robot onto a long tube that can be inserted through bodily openings and successfully snaked it through a curved pipe into a transparent plastic model of a stomach.
1.What is the aim of Tsinghua's new research?
A.To repair wounded skin of the human body.
B.To take stomach ulcer out of the human body.
C.To print new tissues inside the human body.
D.To transplant 3-D printed organs into the human body.
2.What is the advantage of Tsinghua's new technique?
A.Immediate organ sharing. B.Reduced patient suffering.
C.Less use of operation equipment. D.Accurate health condition identification.
3.What is the end product of Tsinghua's research?
A.A plastic stomach. B.A snake-like long tube.
C.A 3-D printed structure. D.A mini bioprinting robot.
4.What's the author's purpose in writing the text?
A.To guide. B.To inform.
C.To advertise. D.To argue.
7.??? A new international study published in PLOS Biology suggests that the popularity of tigers, lions, polar bears and others may actually contribute to their downfall. The researchers used a combination of online investigations, school questionnaires, zoo websites and cartoon films to identify the 10 most beloved animals. The top three were tigers, lions and elephants.
??? "I was surprised to see that although these 10 animals are the most beloved, a major danger faced by nearly all of them is the direct killing by humans, especially from hunting," said William Ripple, a distinguished professor of forest ecology at Oregon State University and a co-author of the study. "This killing by humans seems sadly ironic(諷刺的) to me, as these are some of our most beloved wild animals."
??? Many of these animals are so frequently described in pop culture and marketing materials that they may form an inaccurate "virtual population" that is doing better in the media than in nature, noted by lead author Franck Courchamp of the University of Paris. The researchers found, for example, that the average French citizens will see more virtual lions through photos, cartoons, logos and brands in one month than wild lions left in West Africa.
??? "Unknowingly, companies using giraffes or polar bears for marketing purposes may be actively contributing to the false belief that these animals are not at risk of dying out, and therefore not in need of conservation," Courchamp said. He suggested in the paper that companies using images of endangered animals for marketing purposes provide information to promote their conservation, and perhaps part of their profits for protection of the animals.
??? Nearly half of the toy animals sold in the United States on Amazon were one of the 10 beloved animals, while in France some 800,000 "Sophie the giraffe" baby toys were sold last year—more than eight times the number of giraffes living in Africa.
??? "The appearance of these beloved animals in stores, in movies, on television, and on a variety of products seems to be tricking the public into believing they are doing okay," Ripple said. "If we don't work together to save these animals, that may soon be the only way anyone will see them."
1.What is the text mainly about?
A.Animal images are used in marketing.
B.Wild animals are at a high risk of dying out.
C.Animals' popularity in life causes their decrease.
D.Efforts are made to protect animals in danger.
2.What should companies do according to Courchamp?
A.Use animals for marketing purposes. B.Spare some earnings to protect animals.
C.Avoid providing information about animals. D.Contribute themselves to marketing research.
3.Why does the author mention "Sophie the giraffe" baby toys?
A.To prove these baby toys are a hit in France.
B.To advertise for the baby toys among readers.
C.To show the distinction between virtual and real population.
D.To indicate giraffes rank higher than other animals in France.
4.What does the underlined word "that" in the last paragraph refer to?
A.Raising animals at home. B.A close look at the animals.
C.Exposure to animals in the wild. D.Animals' appearance in the media.
8.The Biggest Stadiums in the World
??? People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 80 A.D., the Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world's best known stadium and continues to inform contemporary design. Rome's Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people. However, that was small fry compared with the city's Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people.
??? These days, safety regulations—not to mention the modern sports fan's desire for a good view and a comfortable seat—tend to keep stadium capacities(容量) slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match.
??? For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites.
??? All these stadiums are still functional, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport.
??? ●Rungrado 1st of May Stadium, Pyongyang, D.P.R.Korea. Capacity: 150,000. Opened: May 1, 1989.
??? ●Michigan Stadium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, U.S. Capacity: 107,601. Opened: October 1, 1927.
??? ●Beaver Stadium, State College, Pennsylvania, U.S. Capacity: 106,572. Opened: September 17, 1960.
??? ●Ohio Stadium, Columbus, Ohio, U.S. Capacity: 104,944. Opened: October 7, 1922.
??? ●Kyle Field, College Station, Texas, U.S. Capacity: 102,512. Opened: September 24, 1927.
1.How many people could the Circus Maximus hold?
A.104,944. B.107,601.
C.About 150,000. D.About 250,000.
2.Of the following stadiums, which is the oldest?
A.Michigan Stadium. B.Beaver Stadium.
C.Ohio Stadium. D.Kyle Field.
3.What do the listed stadiums have in common?
A.They host big games. B.They have become tourist attractions.
C.They were built by Americans. D.They are favored by architects.
9.??? When almost everyone has a mobile phone, why are more than half of Australian homes still paying for a landline(座機(jī))?
??? These days you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn't own a mobile phone. In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere, anytime.
??? Still, 55 percent of Australians have a landline phone at home and only just over a quarter (29%) rely only on their smartphones, according to a survey(調(diào)查). Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that it's not really necessary and they're keeping it as a security blanket—19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies. I think my home falls into that category.
??? More than half of Australian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone. Age is naturally a factor(因素)—only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then, compared to 84 percent of Baby Boomers who've perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. Age isn't the only factor; I'd say it's also to do with the makeup of your household.
??? Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member. That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone (using Caller ID would take the fun out of it).
??? How attached are you to your landline? How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk deliveries?
1.What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about mobile phones?
A.Their target users. B.Their wide popularity.
C.Their major functions. D.Their complex design.
2.What does the underlined word "concede" in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Admit. B.Argue. C.Remember. D.Remark.
3.What can we say about Baby Boomers?
A.They like smartphone games. B.They enjoy guessing callers' identity.
C.They keep using landline phones. D.They are attached to their family.
4.What can be inferred about the landline from the last paragraph?
A.It remains a family necessity. B.It will fall out of use some day.
C.It may increase daily expenses. D.It is as important as the gas light.
10.??? You've heard that plastic is polluting the oceans—between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
??? At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called "Strawpocalypse," a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
??? Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source(來(lái)源) of plastic pollution, but they've recently come under fire because most people don't need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that's part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.
??? In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate(說(shuō)明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled "Truckload of Plastic," Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they'd been dumped(傾倒) from a truck all at once.
??? Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.
1.What are Von Wong's artworks intended for?
A.Beautifying the city he lives in. B.Introducing eco-friendly products.
C.Drawing public attention to plastic waste. D.Reducing garbage on the beach.
2.Why does the author discuss plastic straws in Paragraph 3?
A.To show the difficulty of their recycling. B.To explain why they are useful.
C.To voice his views on modern art. D.To find a substitute for them.
3.What effect would "Truckload of Plastic" have on viewers?
A.Calming. B.Disturbing. C.Refreshing. D.Challenging.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.Artists' Opinions on Plastic Safety B.Media Interest in Contemporary Art
C.Responsibility Demanded of Big Companies D.Ocean Plastics Transformed into Sculptures
